Rising From Stigma, Inc. is a nonprofit organization rooted in compassion, education, and the healing power of nature. Founded by someone who has walked through the fire of trauma, mental health struggles, and recovery, this movement was born to create space for hope, healing, and connection. ​​​​​​​

​

We know what it's like to feel alone, misunderstood, or judged. Our mission is to support individuals and families impacted by mental health challenges, addiction, trauma, and grief-especially those who feel silenced by shame or stigma. We offer a safe space for recovery through community workshops, plant-based wellness, and therapeutic education.

​

What we Do:

​​​​

* Plant-Based Healing Workshops: We teach people how caring for plants can help manage stress, cope with trauma, and build healthy routines.

​​

* Peer-Led Support Groups: Safe, supportive environments where individuals can share, connect, and grow together.

​​

* Mental Health Awareness Events: Community events that help break the silence around topics like addiction, bipolar disorder, trauma, sleep disorder, grief,  eating disorder, so on until the road becomes a pathway to recovery. 

​​

* Educational Outreach: We partner with schools, libraries, and other organizations to provide resources and promote mental health wellness.

​​

* Wellness Kits & Grow With Me Kits, and the tools for you to know more about self-care.  From DIY succulent kits to journal prompts and mindfulness cards, we offer affordable tools to support healing at home.

​​

Why it Matters:

​​

Mental health is real.  Addiction is real. Grief is real. But so is healing. So is growth!

​​

At Rising From Stigma, Inc., we believe nobody should have to walk this path alone. Every event, every workshop, and every plant we give is rooted in the hope that someone finds peace, comfort, and strength to keep going.
